Sorry if I post this under the wrong heading. Didn't really know where to post it so it went here. Please mods, move the thread if you feel that it's out of place. Me and two friends of mine will be spending time in Memphis, TN during 13-25 October. It's my first time there, so if anyone has got any suggestions on nice places to visit, concerts to see, restaurants to eat at, locations to dig for records etc. I'd really appreciate any tips. Will be travelling around the area as well and will spend a day or two in Nashville as well plus will make it to Muscle Shoals for one day. It's not a record digging trip per se, but I will probably spend a couple of days going through whatever I might find. Big thanks in advance!

There seems to be some confusion here. Their two 45s on COLUMBIA are as follows: Eddy Jacobs Exchange - Pull My Coat / Black Is Black - COLUMBIA 44821 Eddy Jacobs Exchange- Can't Seem To Get You Out Of My Mind / Love (Your Pain Goes Deep) - COLUMBIA 45174 The flipside to "Pull My Coat" is indeed a version of Los Bravos hit "Black Is Black". Much faster and more of a stomper than Los Bravos cut though.

Most airlines allow hand luggage measuring 56 cm x 45 cm x 25 cm. The bags in the links above are 52 x 33 x 26 so should be OK unless that extra 1cm causes trouble?

Elvis claimed to have been very influenced by Roy Hamilton's singing style so it kinda makes sense. Some info: https://www.elvisinfonet.com/presley_hamilton_spotlight.html Here they are together in 1969:

There might very well be another Equals 45 on the label. I have no idea really, I'll keep my eyes peeled!

This one? One of the most intense things released on the Shout label.

"I Need You Now", as good and punchy as it is, sounds very disjointed/dischordant though. I think there is a bigger chance of the flipside "Still Burning In My Heart" to get spins on the northern scene. Their "Far From The Maddening Crowd" (written by Dan Penn and the flipisde to "I'll Take You Where The Music's Playing") is another one of theirs which seems to be picking up interest.

Seeing as the GREEDY issue usually goes for £30-£50 on eBay, I'm not suprised. Stating the obvious here perhaps but auctions are driven by the desire to grab a bargain. Starting the auction at or near the percieved "value" (or above it!) puts most people off bidding on the item.

James Carmichael arranged it, not James Carr,

Same here! Both 60's and 70's CDs, please!

Found another one with H.B. involvement: Duvals - Last Surf / Ferny Roast - PRELUDE 110 I assume that the ones below are also on the same label: Rhonda Fleming - Cold Rain / My Heart Cries For You - PRELUDE 100 Phillip Sisters - Together We'll Be / You'll Never Know - PRELUDE 106 One of the sides on the Phillip Sisters 45 also got a release on the DRA label. Might be the same group that recorded for ROMARK as well.

Regarding the Broadway 45 on the "other" Prelude label. Perhaps not rare in the greater scheme of things, but it is definitely one of the trickiest Prelude 7" releases to find. It seldom pops up for sale these days and usually goes for $40-$60. Two good sides.

Any additions/corrections? J.J. Jackson And The Jackaels - Oo-Ma-Liddy / Let The Show Begin - PRELUDE 502 Rhonda Fleming - Cold Rain / My Heart Cries For You - PRELUDE 100 Phillip Sisters - Together We'll Be / You'll Never Know - PRELUDE 106 Duvals - Last Surf / Ferny Roast - PRELUDE 110 McGee's - So Tired / Got Ta' Get It - PRELUDE 143 Mac Staten And The Nomads - There She Goes / ? - PRELUDE 1111 Nomads - Icky Poo / Last Summer Day - PRELUDE 1112

Thanks for clarifying. Much appreciated! Building up a satisfied customer base and alerting them when new product is available has been absolute key for me. About 50-60% (sometimes even more) of the people who buy from me in each auction round are return customers.

I hope you're not singling me out there.

I'm as surprised as the rest of you! I'm not complaining though. There were three separate bids over $100 ($122, $288 and $293). The winning bid came from one of my most loyal customers (a UK guy, he buys loads of stuff all the time in pretty much all genres). Money doesn't seem to be an object if he wants something. But obviously someone bid $288 as well (a person from Australia). If the second highest bidder hadn't put in that bid it would've gone for $123. But the $288 bid was there, hence the high ending price.

Scroll down to the bottom, it is mentioned there.

By the way, the EJA and GREEDY releases are two different recordings of the same tune. They sound very different from eachother.
